U.S. Trade Representative Jamieson Greer said Sunday that proposed one-time $2,000 payments funded by tariff revenue would not worsen inflation — and could offer meaningful relief to families feeling squeezed by high costs.
According to Fox News, during an interview on “Fox & Friends Weekend,” Greer said, “This is real money that’s coming in, and we get to decide what to do with it.”
“The $2,000, that’s one option,” he added, noting that President Donald Trump is “eager to discuss and explore more” proposals as tariff receipts continue to rise.
Greer pushed back on warnings that the plan could stoke higher prices, insisting the proposal isn’t large enough or long-term enough to affect inflation trends.
